(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 12/28/2017 4:33 PM EDT It was a sequel seven years in the making and at the time it had been the most expensive film made to date. The visual effects surpassed everyone's expectations and when it was released on July 3, 1991, it became an instant commercial and critical success. It utilized the latest CGI technology offering audiences something they had rarel... Read More |
 
(Nathan M Rose) 12/19/2017 11:32 AM EDT Back in 2015, director Matthew Vaughn (Layer Cake, X-Men: First Class) and famed comic book writer Mark Millar unloaded a new kind of comic book film unto the world entitled Kingsman: The Secret Service. Kingman was a slick, glossy film that wore it's R rated badge proudly. It was filled with tongue in cheek jokes, a "bondesque... Read More |
(Jennifer Broderick) 12/18/2017 5:01 PM EDT There is a plethora of movies about World War II, Wonder Woman, Saving Private Ryan, Schindler's List, The Pianist, Pearl Harbor- just to name a few. We are obsessed with the superheroes, the love story, the underdog, and the victims of that time period. We immerse ourselves in the romanticization of the drama and stories that are derived fro...

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 12/15/2017 2:54 PM EDT There are many people who believe there are aliens out there in the universe and some who think they live amongst us. There are also people who believe there is a secret government agency covering up the existence of aliens. Nineteen ninety-seven's comedy and subsequent sequels take a humorous look at the idea that both aliens and a... Read More |
(Nathan M Rose) 12/5/2017 9:37 AM EDT Back in 1999, an up and coming author, Vince Flynn, published a novel entitled Transfer of Power with a minor character named, Mitch Rapp. This character captivated the minds and hearts of Flynn's readers. Now, 17 years later, CBS Films and Lionsgate home entertainment have released the first in a new hopeful series, American Assassin based on ... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 12/5/2017 9:05 AM EDT Imagine being a nine or ten-year-old boy who is bullied at school and who is so afraid of his father that he lets a good man get fired for a mistake he made. For Alan Parrish (Robin Williams; Mrs. Doubtfire) this is his reality one day in 1969. As he contemplates running away from home, his fate is decided by another turn of events... Read More |
(Jennifer Broderick) 12/4/2017 5:13 PM EDT Universal Pictures and Illumination Entertainment are bringing us the third movie in the Despicable Me franchise this holiday season. This is clearly not the last movie, as the fourth is scheduled to be released in 2024, which after watching number 3, is exciting. Despicable Me 3 built upon the franchise, introduced new characters and further devel... Read More |
(Jennifer Broderick) 11/28/2017 5:17 PM EDT J.K. Rowling came up with a brilliant idea- a boy who is a wizard and gets into a load of scrapes with his friends. The story continues in the second book and therefore, the second movie, courtesy of - or should we say luckily enough- provided by Warner Bros. Studios. Harry Potter is a mix of fantasy and adventure and mystery ... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 11/27/2017 11:00 PM EDT Ever wanted to pull off the perfect heist? Ever have the opportunity and think you could plan a way to steal millions of dollars? What if that plan included breaking someone out of prison for less than 12 hours and sneaking them back in before the prison guards noticed they were gone? For Jimmy Logan (Channing Tatum; Magic Mike) that is... Read More |
(Jennifer Broderick) 11/27/2017 7:34 PM EDT Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire is really the first movie in the Harry Potter Franchise where we can really see that Harry Potter would be lost without his friends. He is a true Gryffindor- loyal to all his friends and brave to the point of sometimes stupidity (which is why we love Harry Potter)- but clearly not so much as cut out for Rav... Read More |
